My first cruise, The Viking Sky was a brand new ship and it is beautiful. They take care of everything and had everything you could ever want. Pools, library, games, puzzles, music, workout rooms, beautician., sauna, bars, explorers lounge, golf, shuffleboard, shows, dance lessons and much more. The excursions were plentiful with all kinds of themes or venues to choose from , they were interesting and lots of fun. The food was gourmet, simply wonderful. Plenty of entrees to choose from, and many were prepared for the region that we were visiting that day. The deserts were amazing, I should have gained 10 pounds.The staff was so friendly, nice, helpful, courteous . Lots of entertainment aboard the ship, had a lot of fun and met the nicest people. Liked the security getting on and off the ship. And the health concern of hot towels to wash your hands and get rid of any germ was reassuring .Simply loved everything about it and didn't want the trip to end. Have now booked my second cruise and am looking forward to another wonderful time.
